Chapter 6 When the meeting is going on (in the middle)
In the end, after voting, ten representatives of Serie A clubs passed Perot’s case. In order to strengthen the offensive atmosphere of Serie A, the specific measures were similar to their previous imagination, that is, by making the referees more inclined to the offensive side in the penalty scale and increasing the penalty for defensive fouls.
This is a relatively good reform method drawn by the Italian Football Association after a long period of analysis and discussion, because it will increase the difficulty of the team in the defense process. If the players don’t pay attention to the range of motion when defending, it is likely to give the opponent a lot of opportunities to set the ball in the frontcourt, and even eat cards, which will make them tied up in the next defense. If there are one or two Italian ball masters in the opponent’s team at this time and they can also launch targeted attacks on those players who eat cards in the game, the probability of their goal being broken will increase greatly!
In order to avoid this kind of bad situation, the head coach will choose to strengthen the offensive mode to offset the defensive pressure brought by the opponent. Since the defense has become difficult, it is better to attack to break through. Anyway, this change has almost the same impact on both sides of the game on the defensive end, which means that it is more difficult to defend the other side’s attack, and it also means that the attack on his own side will also bring more trouble to the other side’s defense line. I believe that most head coaches will make choices then.
Of course, this reform will not be implemented immediately in Serie A, but will be postponed until the season. On the one hand, the Football Association needs to retrain referees to adapt these black judges to the new penalty scale; On the other hand, because the season is already halfway through, all Serie A teams are ready to make an impact on the goals set before the season. If the Football Association suddenly changes the rules of the game at this time, it will inevitably cause strong dissatisfaction among most teams.
Therefore, in order to avoid all kinds of disadvantages, the Italian Football Association finally decided to wait until the first half of this year to give the judges a training period so that they can have a preadaptation process, so as to minimize the probability of mistakes in the reform process.
After the result of the first topic, the meeting will enter the intermission stage, and the staff will have two hours of free activities, and the meeting will not be resumed until after lunch.
Antonio, it’s really thanks to you this time. Without you, I’m afraid no one can’t end this topic in a day or two. In a small room not far from the conference room, Perot expressed his gratitude to Zhuang Ge. Although Perot had reached an agreement with several giants such as Florence on this issue before, the president of the Football Association didn’t expect that those representatives of small and mediumsized clubs could make such a mess at the meeting and almost let his reform plan die.
If Zhuang Ge didn’t have time to make a breakthrough in Martres at that time and directly suppressed some chaotic scenes, I’m afraid it would take more effort to suppress these people if Perot wanted the president of the Football Association to pass this reform.
It’s no big deal. Just say hello to us before President Perot comes back again. I think many people are willing to lend you a helping hand. Zhuang Ge accepted Perot’s thanks with a wave and said, What a shortsighted guy! If you think about it carefully, you will find that this reform is of great benefit to all clubs, but they are still blinded by the little interest in front of them. They can’t see the bright appearance of Serie A now, and they can’t find out how great benefits Serie A can bring to our Italian football after completing this reform.
Perot quickly nodded and said that although he is the president of the Italian Football Association, he has strong jurisdiction over the ten Serie A clubs, but actually these stamping can trigger an earthquake in Italy. He obviously dare not put on airs in front of Zhuang Ge and others. By the way, I have some details here that I want to discuss with Antonio …
The twohour break passed quickly, and the club representatives returned to the venue in twos and threes, waiting for Perot to announce the second and last topic to be discussed at the meeting.
Compared with the afternoon meeting, many representatives of small and mediumsized clubs were so nervous that they didn’t even dare to get out of the atmosphere. Compared with the atmosphere in the middle of the meeting, the atmosphere was much calmer. These representatives didn’t need to bear the cold sweat and stare from the bosses such as Zhuang Ge and Galliani Moggi.
president Perot, if I understand correctly, do you mean to ask us to further strengthen the training of local players from the season? This was after President Perot announced the second topic of the meeting. Galliani questioned, I think the policy is very good now. Each Serie A team should have at least four young players and famous local players. Although some young players can be included in the scope of local players, it has actually occupied a large part of our teams. If the number of people is increased, I am worried that this will have an adverse impact on our European teams.
Galliani’s opinion has been endorsed by most representatives of teams qualified for the European War. Although Italy is a strong football country and its youth training foundation is quite perfect, it is not rich enough to catch a child casually in the streets like Brazil. There are only a few good seedlings emerging every year, and many of them are not limited to the team’s combat effectiveness. Galliani’s words are really reasonable and not targeted
Manager Galliani, your views are really insightful and reasonable, but maybe you misunderstood me and I didn’t intend to achieve this order? Perot scratched his head and said, I said that all teams should strengthen the training of local players, but I didn’t say that you should increase the proportion of local players in the first team.
… what? Galliani was dumbfounded when he heard Perot’s answer.
Chapter 61 When the meeting is going on ()
Since we are not required to increase the number of local players in the first team, what do you mean by President Perot? Hearing Perot’s answer, Galliani was also a little confused. He said, is it because the president of the Football Association has a cramp in his head? How to speak gives him a feeling of inconsistency? It is not only required to increase the training of local players, but also not required to increase the number of local players in the first team, so how can they achieve the goal required by Perot?
Galliani doesn’t think that this goal can be achieved by simply relying on the current youth league. After all, it is a stadium where ten Serie A clubs belong to the youth team, but there is no such thing as a headache. The players are generally lack of professional experience. At the same time, the youth team competition still lacks the fierce physical confrontation and petty actions in the adult team competition. These factors are combined to make many new stars who shine in the youth league behave very uncomfortable after being transferred to the professional league. It takes a long time for the professional league to temper their necessary combat power.
For the increasingly fierce competition in Serie A, what teams lack at present is to give these rookie training opportunities. Because these inexperienced players have a great chance to make mistakes, the team will lose points, which forms a vicious circle … Players have few opportunities to play because of their inexperience and lack of professional training, which makes it difficult for them to accumulate much experience and improve their strength … It is a problem to go back and forth like this unless the player is willing to jump ship and transfer to a team willing to give him a main position.
Young people like Starr and Owen, who can hold the main position in one fell swoop as soon as they enter the first team, mostly accumulate strength and make a name for themselves after wandering in lowlevel leagues or some weak teams for a while, so that they have the opportunity to land in the giants.
It is said that the socalled youth league alone can not train players who meet professional standards, let alone use this place as a training base for newcomers
Well, everyone, I think so. Perot also thought that if you talk in circles like this, someone might misread any extra meaning, so he simply said bluntly, My idea is to learn from the practices of Germany and Spain. Every Serie A club has the ability to form a second team to participate in professional leagues! However, there are some restrictions. For example, like Spain, the second team can’t be in the same league as the first team, and the newly formed second team must start from the third league … Of course, I won’t ask all Serie A teams to form second teams. This is your freedom. If anyone thinks it is necessary, please submit an application before the end of the season, so that we can arrange the schedule here.
Well, that’s a good idea. This speech was replaced by Franco Sensi. After all, the youth training in Rome has always been quite powerful. Old Sensi is often troubled by such things as training new people. This will not only give potential rookies of each team more opportunities to participate in professional competitions, but also solve the problem that players need to adapt to the tactical system again after being promoted to the first team by keeping the second team and the first team in the same way.
Old Sensi’s views were naturally endorsed by the representatives of the sports giants, while those of the middle reaches were generally not interested in it. After all, if there were really good seedlings, they would definitely join the first team for the first time and focus on training. How can they spare time to play slowly from the second team? That is, those clubs with too many highquality resources will have the money to set up a second team to train young players who have not yet turned their potential into strength.
Therefore, Perot was strongly supported by the major clubs, and this second case was successfully passed.
When the conference announced the end, seven representatives, such as Florence and Rome, who were called Serie A Seven Sisters, unexpectedly submitted applications to Perot to set up a second team, and they were prepared to call people to build a second battlefield as soon as they got back. In addition, Vicenza and Houdusse, two teams that trafficked people for a living, also submitted applications to the Football Association. They obviously planned to cultivate a huge reserve corps through the second team. Once someone bought the first team players at a high price, they could directly draw people from the second team to fill the vacancy.
Ha ha, these shortsighted guys will regret today’s action sooner or later. When they found out that there were only nine team representatives who submitted the application for the establishment of the second team, Zhuang Ge secretly laughed at him in his heart. He really couldn’t count on this gang’s cheat people pig teammates if he wanted Serie A to continue to maintain the peak of this small World Cup.
After all, with a lot of video broadcasting income, even the teams at the bottom of Serie A standings can spend a lot of money to buy stars. Think about it. If this investment can last for several years, I’m afraid these teams may not have enough to leave for the youth teams, let alone other teams. In this way, it is very important to have a second team that can adapt young players to professional leagues.
Anyway, after returning to Florence from the Football Association headquarters, the news that a team won made Zhuang Geyuan feel very good and more comfortable!
At the end of the weekend, in the 17th round of Serie A, Florence, which was at home, welcomed its opponent, Bari. This team, which once made the name of Giant Killer, has performed well this season. Although it has been ranked in the middle of the standings, it has not been threatened by relegation.
However, compared with Fiorentina, which ranked first, Barry’s strength is obviously not enough to watch the home game, and the Fiorentina players are full of energy. They didn’t give this opponent many opportunities to perform. vieri even let the fans enjoy the style of a top shooter in the game, and at the same time, he raised his league goals to 17 in one breathhe scored 17 league goals just in the past half of Serie A. vieri showed people his strong scoring ability!
In the end, Florence won the Serie A semiCheng Guanjun by beating Barry 41 at Frankie Stadium.
Chapter 62 Mutu
The news that Florence won the Serie A semiCheng Guanjun has not caused a stir in Italian football. For fans, it is nothing new for Florence to win just one and a half Cheng Guanjun, unless this team has won six consecutive Serie A titles at the end of the season, or a team has successfully overthrown Viola’s rule over Italian football and snatched the league title from Florence’s mouth. Only such news can attract their attention.
Can’t blame the fans for demanding too much, who let Florence’s rule over Serie A and their powerful strength have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. After all, the results of five consecutive league titles can be swaying in front of people, making people want to see that they are hard to achieve.
Therefore, in this context, it is really not a big deal for Florence to win Serie A and semiCheng Guanjun in people’s eyes. At most, it gives many Florence fans an excuse to celebrate, and it also makes many fans of other teams more and more unhappy with Viola. Florence’s strong dominance in the league naturally means that the hopes of other teams interested in winning the Serie A championship become increasingly slim.
Especially Juventus and Inter Milan, the former has never tasted the league title since the end of Platini’s era, while the latter has been winning the league title for nearly ten years now, so the fans of these two teams are full of resentment against Florence.
After all, these two clubs are different from the teams that they call Serie A, Parma, Seven Sisters and Rome. Although these teams have shown strong competitiveness in recent years, they have never been able to win much honor, especially in the league championship. Together, these three teams have not won as much as Florence in the last five years, while the situation of Juventus and Inter Milan is completely different. The teams have a glorious history and the league championships are ranked first and third. It is impossible for them to accept the reality of longterm league titles.
Therefore, it is a very difficult and challenging project for many coaches to coach giants such as Juventus and Inter Milan, because these two clubs have shown signs of being possessed by the desire for the league title. Now it is difficult for them to accept the strong contenders who have won the top few league titles or become Serie A champions. As a result, they need a genuine league title trophy!
It is precisely because of this that Mo Lao Fox has regretted firing Lippi, the former coach of the team, but he still has no intention to invite Silver Fox back, because he feels that even if the other team returns, it is impossible to lead the Bianconeri to overthrow the rule of Florence.
In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that Juventus will be further and further lost by Florence. The main reason is that Moggi has invested too little in the transfer market. After releasing the top stars such as Viali, Deschamps and Blanc, he did not introduce players with the same strength. Instead, he bought powerful players such as Henry and tudor, who have great potential but have not yet finished their strength. Although this has made the Bianconeri’s tactical play more integrated, the fighting capacity and bench depth have dropped a lot compared with those when Moggi first entered Juventus.
Although Faccetti, a professional and master of the famous Rossoneri, has been added to Inter Milan after Zhuang Ge’s guidance, Moratti’s impatience and recklessness have improved, but this does not mean that the great boss will slow down the pace of reviving the Rossoneri and competing for the league title
Anyway, after beating Bari at home, Florence ushered in the tenth round of Serie A next weekend. This time, Florence’s opponent was slaughtered in Venice by their four goals in the opening match of Serie A last season.
Although Florence suffered a defeat at home in Venice this season, the Florence team all thought that they would not repeat the same mistake this time. On the one hand, they are in very good condition, especially the Italian tank vieri, the main center, has become more vigorous since the arrival of the new millennium. From his only two appearances, he scored six goals. At present, 17 league goals rank first in the Serie A scorer list, and it can be seen that his condition is terrible. On the other hand, because of the loss of recoba, Venezia once again exposed its fish quality. This team, which has won three games in the league so far, is the hottest spot for Serie A relegation. The odds are second only to Piacenza, who is the vice squad leader of the league.
Therefore, on January 23, when the players in Florence walked out of the stadium in Piaget Luigi Solo, they were full of confidence. They thought it was a piece of cake to take this game.
However, the reality poured cold water on these selfconfident players. When the 90minute routine passed, the referee blew a whistle and the stands gave a deafening cheer. However, thousands of Venetian fans came to the scene with the team to watch hundreds of Florence fans fall into silence!
